Seongnam form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the K-League 1 this season. Seongnam have only managed 0 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex. Seongnam are slowly digging their own grave here at Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Ulsan match.

Seongnam are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 230 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Min-Hyeok).

In their previous game, the manager Kim led his Seongnam to a defeat away at Suwon Bluewings. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Seongnam Tancheon Sports Complex. Heartbreak for Seongnam in their last match as Suwon Bluewings's Jin-Woo scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Defender Choi got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.42/10. Choi hit one key pass and won 6 of 7 duels.

Heartbreak before that as Seongnam lost 0-1 at Pohang Steelers's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Seongnam perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Seongnam as a small favourite), we find 8 games. Seongnam has won 2 of these, drawn 1 and lost 5.

The manager Kim will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Seoul in only three days.

The lack of attacking qualities in Seongnam means that they have only scored 3 goals in 7 league home games, less than half a goal per match.

Suwon form and stats

Suwon have only collected 4 points from their away games in the K-League 1, after 1-1-5 (7 played). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Suwon have lost on their last two travels.

Suwon's previous game was their home loss versus Jeju United (1-3). Suwon goalkeeper Yu could take pride in a brilliant shift vs Jeju United, but despite registering six saves the beating could not be stopped. Defender Kim was the best team player with a rating of 7.33. Kim hit one key pass and won 4 of 5 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Seoul's place.
